Television Academy and Unified

With 4.6MM social interactions generated for the shows aired this holiday week, Hollywood sure gave us a lot of great content to binge on between burger bites and scoops of apple pie.

Social audiences posted and tweeted their points of view about one premiere and five popular finales, including a bittersweet end to one of cable’s top series.

We scoured the Facebook and Twitter activity of The Voice, Dancing with the Stars, The Flash, Mad Men, The Bachelorette, and black-ish to see which of the following was most impactful:

  • Sawyer Fredricks edging out Meghan, Joshua and Koryn for the win on the season finale of The Voice
  • Rumer Willis and Valentin Chmerkovskiy shimmying their way to victory on the season finale of Dancing with the Stars
  • Barry’s mission go back in time to save his mother on the season finale of The Flash
  • The end of Don Draper’s journey on the series finale of Mad Men
  • The double-bachelorette twist on the season premiere of The Bachelorette
  • The tale of how great-great grandpa made a risky bet on the family’s future on the season finale of black-ish
